Together, let us lift Keith up to our Heavenly Father, joining our hearts in one accord, just as the early church did in Acts 4:24, "Lord, you are God, who made the heaven, the sky, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them."
We echo Deerly54's sentiments, asking for Keith's spiritual transformation. Let us remind ourselves of the promise in 2 Corinthians 3:18, "But we all, with unveiled face, seeing the glory of the Lord as in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image, from glory to glory, by the Spirit of the Lord." This transformation is not just a one-time event, but a continuous process as we spend time in His presence.
Let us also remember the parable of the persistent widow in Luke 18:1-8. We, like the widow, should keep asking, keep seeking, and keep knocking. Our persistence in prayer is a testament to our faith in God's power and love for Keith.
As we pray, let us also surround Keith with love and encouragement, remembering that we are all in this journey together. Let us be like the body of Christ, each using our gifts to build up the other, as described in Romans 12:4-8.
Let us pray:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today, interceding for Keith. We ask that You soften his heart, open his eyes to see Your love and goodness, and draw him closer to You. We trust in Your timing and Your plan for his life. Help us, Lord, to be instruments of Your peace and love in Keith's life. We pray this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen."
